Hello, I'm Oshwah. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Xolobeni mine with this edit, without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   01:53, 28 June 2016 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Xolobeni mine with this edit, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   02:00, 28 June 2016 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did to Xolobeni mine with this edit, you may be blocked from editing.  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   02:09, 28 June 2016 (UTC)

My edits are disruptive, there is a bot that keeps deleting the edits I place which are based on the facts. Please explain why Wikipedia aren't interested in the facts?

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Xolobeni mine. —&thinsp;JJMC89&thinsp; (T·C) 05:02, 28 June 2016 (UTC)

Your addition to Xolobeni mine has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images&mdash;you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. —&thinsp;JJMC89&thinsp; (T·C) 05:58, 28 June 2016 (UTC)

I have full permission by all of whom i cite to cite them on this page. Both the Guardian journalist, Jason Burke, AND the company care about the truth. I am happy to send you their permission. Stop deleting cited works immediatelyTiredeco (talk) 06:24, 28 June 2016 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Xolobeni mine shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   06:16, 28 June 2016 (UTC)

Hello Oshwah

I totally agree with you, I have tried to reason with this guy but he is unreasonable. In addition he is using his knowledge of Wikipedia to make this process very difficult for me. I have full permissions from all copyright owners - how to I go forward from here? In addition, there are many citations on the page without evidence of copyright permissions? Why aren't they also flagged? I am very suspicious of the agenda of the individual in question, not sure how to deal with this situation.Tiredeco (talk) 06:24, 28 June 2016 (UTC)

I've had to delete a supress a number of edits at Xolobeni mine because they were direct copies of text from other sources. Please add in any text in your own words and cite the sources properly. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 06:23, 28 June 2016 (UTC)

Sure I can do that no issueTiredeco (talk) 06:23, 28 June 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Tiredeco, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Xolobeni mine has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.


 * You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
 * Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
 * Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Copyrights. You may also want to review Copy-paste.
 * If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Donating copyrighted materials.
 * In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
 * Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. —&thinsp;JJMC89&thinsp; (T·C) 05:46, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
